I would really appreciate someone's help on this:
My family obtained their green cards in August 2009, they entered the US on their I-551s and applied for re-entry permits.
they got the fingerprints done before they left and received the actual re-entry permits.
it is valid for 2 years. Do they have to re-enter the US at least once within those 2 years? or does the re-entry permits protect them totally and allow them to be in their home country for the entire 2 years?
They are planning on moving to the US right before it expires, but until then, will this prevent them from losing their Green Cards?
Thank you
